Don's features make it spacious

The Don (402-46) is a small home with a number of features that create a sense of spaciousness disproportionate to its size. It's a plan rich in contemporary amenities.

On entering, to your right is a bright and spacious living room. It has a high vaulted ceiling and bay windows that expand the space, filling the entire front facing wall and wrapping around to the sides. Light also streams down through a half-round window nestled beneath a small dormer.

To your left is a time managing kitchen, designed to eliminate unnecessary steps, making anything you do here enjoyable. Utilities are close by in a relatively large laundry room that is convenient to the kitchen, bedrooms and two-car garage.

Straight ahead you step into a large, informal family room. An eating bar provides some separation between the kitchen area and family room, but the core of the plan is basically open, front to back. Family and friends will find plenty of comfortable spots to relax. Choices range from lounging on couches in the family room, snacking at the eating bar, or lingering over coffee and newspapers in the nook. In the family room, a large storage closet comes in handy for keeping games and other playthings handy but out of the way.

The nook is larger than most, roomy enough to accommodate a desk and a family computer in addition to a table. Families with young children will appreciate the location of the kitchen sink and the range. The sink faces the front yard and street, allowing parents to keep an eye on children playing. Standing at the range, you can gaze across the family room and out the sliding glass doors.

The master suite is separated from the other bedrooms and features a large walk-in closet and private skylit bath. Close enough to the family room to supervise activities yet separate enough for a comfortable nights sleep. The two opposite bedrooms are separated by a skylit bath.
